Few weeks later, The invitation card to Brian and Lyra’s elaborate wedding circulated the whole of Ashton Hills. All her friends celebrated and looked forward to the wedding. Although it wasn't yet confirmed, people overheard Brian talking about having the wedding on a yacht. He had promised to make it the best wedding of the century, the best wedding in the whole of Ashton Hills. Lyra became the woman everyone envied. They all wanted a perfect man like Brian Duke, but that would be in their wildest dreams. Lyra had been with Brian even when no one recognized him, so none of them deserved someone like Brian.Harry stared at the invitation card and scoffed. Lyra and Brian were planning a second wedding? The one everyone in Ashton Hills would notice? Even if he wouldn't have Lyra, then maybe no one else should. The next wedding would never be successful. Not when he was still alive. ***“Albert.” Brian called out when Albert walked into his office. “Congratulations on your wedding, m

Martin stumbled to the back, his eyes wide with terror. The words he never wanted to hear again, his father had said it with no remorse. He shook his head, hoping everything would be a joke but it wasn't. He was no longer the heir to the Scott's Empire. “Father, you c..an't do this to me.” he stuttered, hoping his father would change his mind. For the past few weeks, being the heir to the Scott Empire brought back his lost respect, but losing it again would ruin him. People would wonder if he had messed up again, and he wasn't willing to give people the satisfaction of watching him falling to the ground. His heart was filled with despair, and he badly wished that his father would have mercy on him. His position was his life and losing it would only drive him insane. Martin got on his knees. He placed his forehead on Landon's shoe and pleaded, “Please, please don't take everything away from me.” his voice choked as he cleaned his tears on his father's shoe. Martin was devastated, dev

Few days later, James decided to visit Brian and apologize. With each passing moment he was losing his stand and respect. He had promised an organization to return with the staff and share the contents of the vault with them, but he had failed shamelessly. As he had exhausted almost all his funds in searching for the staff, all he had left wouldn't last him a year. The Tycoon 6 was really his life, and getting kicked out has affected his life in several ways. Upon reaching the Duke's Empire, he wondered how Brian was going to react upon seeing him. Although James was a member of the Tycoon 6, he had his own Empire, but without the backing of the Tycoon 6 would make it collapse any moment from now. He had started to regret all his actions just when he got kicked out. He didn't receive special treatments anywhere again. Now he was just an ordinary person. After having a talk with the receptionist, he was allowed to go into Brian's office. After knocking for a while, Brian's voice ra

“The Hidden Location of the Vault?” he gasped, his eyes widened in surprise. His heartbeat quickened, his hands trembling as he read the next words on the black sheet. As he read the words, his frown deepened as he couldn't believe that the Vault was actually in the outskirts of the city. Below a building which looked weak and deserted. It could be any building, but then, a symbol was going to tell. The symbol was drawn on the black sheet and he was suddenly determined to get that Vault. Below meant underground. Right? Then the code written on the staff was definitely the code to unlocking the vault. No one would have realized that the vault could actually be hidden there. Checking the time, he shook his head since it was almost midnight. He wished the next day would come quickly, Just so he could hurry to the location and find the vault. Due to how secretive the information was, he decided to act on it alone. Not like he didn't trust Albert, it was better some things remain hidden t

“Brian, I've heard so much about you.” Lancelon Knight said as they walked inside, taking in the young man's appearance. Although he had been looking forward to the event, he wasn't expecting to meet the man whose Empire controlled 70% of a city. Brian smiled at the president, Lancelon. He was still shocked the president of a whole country had taken interest in him. “There's really nothing special about me.” he chuckled as he walked side by side with the president, earning stares from the onlookers. To move with the president of a whole country wasn't something that you would see everyday. Business men of several companies wanted to approach Lancelon, but he seemed strict and stiff. The man seemed to take interest in Brian alone, and that alone angered them. The event was about to start, and so a lot of people trooped in, dressed in extravagant outfits. Walking towards the seat reserved for the highly esteemed guests, Brian sat down right beside the president. As the event went on,
